DROUGHT PROBLEM: THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT AND OTHER COMMUNITY IN RESOLVING

Abstract

The Government of India has devised many short-, medium- and long-term strategies to mitigate and overcome adverse effects of drought, and has implemented relief and development programs in cooperation with the concerned states. These measures include ensuring availability of food grains and fodder, judicious use of surface and groundwater, prevention of migration of cattle camps, appropriate selection of crops, cropping sequences and agronomic practices, promotion subsidiary income of the affected people, and employment generation in rural areas. In the last 20 years, India has evolved many new strategies to cope with droughts by a change from a purely relief focus to the present drought management strategy.
